The wheels of dynamism move on

Wheels move on and what better than flowers to dress them up and make them move?

The marigold flowers represent courage in life lined with green leaves to denote progress and movement in the life of a country.

It shows dynamism as wheels don't stand for long. They have to keep moving to show change and a forward approach.

Wheels can move backward too if the economy is not progressing.

I went to a flower show by the tourism department and felt that the wheel design was decorated in a way to represent the movement in time artistically and aesthetically.

The wheels to me represented A life cycle or a chain of events that move during life until the next generation starts the cycle again. Throughout a life cycle, there will be several different stages in development and economic growth, and knowledge.

Every living organism goes through a cycle during its life. Life cycles have important differences. Each life is unique and has its own history and chain of events. It is deep thinking.

Every product has a life cycle and every business moves up and down and is cyclical. The stock market shows the cycles of movement however haphazard and makes or breaks lives.

The flowers teach us the actual lesson of a life cycle as it moves from seeds in different shapes and sizes. Every seed contains an embryo. The embryo becomes a fully grown plant through germination, growth, budding, full bloom, and death.

The movement represents historical events, literature, economic development, and philosophical thoughts of the individual and the country as a whole.
